Learning Words Through Context We must rely on a variety of sources to learn history. For information on the very first humans, we have fossil remains. A fossil is a part or imprint of something that was once alive. Bones and footprints preserved in rock are examples of fossils. As humans learned to make things, they also created more sources of information for us. They made what we call artifacts, objects created and used by humans. Artifacts include coins, toys, tools and pottery. EQ: What terms do I need to know in order to study history?
